Chapter 470: Theory of Strong Races - Seeds Taking Roots
In the distance, the domain field behind the ghost life was like a fast-moving train, engulfing the battlefield and spreading in front of Feng Qi. After covering him, it continued to spread behind him.
The battle between the domain fields instantly decided the winner.
The world filled with wind and sand in front of me suddenly changed its style.
It was like suddenly traveling to another world.
The entire sky had no light source, showing a strange green color. The ghost life floating in the sky became very active like a school of fish entering the water, and the flying speed was obviously much faster.
This scene made Feng Qi very confused.
The war below the hillside was still going on. Although the ghost life had a clear advantage, it would not end the war in a short time. Why did it suddenly gain an absolute advantage, and even its own domain field engulfed the opponent's domain field in a short time.
Just when Feng Qi was confused, the voice of the magic knife sounded in his mind:
"It should be that the space crystal was broken by a sneak attack."
After listening to the explanation of the magic knife, Feng Qi suddenly understood what happened.
The domain world is different from the human world. Each clan domain has a space core, which is equivalent to the eye of the formation. Once it is damaged, the entire clan domain will collapse quickly.
At that time, the resources and life inside will fall out with the collapse of the domain, or become resources that invade the domain.
Obviously, there is a secret fight behind this war.
The ghost life successfully defeated the space crystal of the domain creature wearing khaki battle armor.
The already tilted balance of war has completely tilted to the ghost life.
After the domain pattern changed, the ghost life in the sky seemed to be inspired, and gathered from all directions towards the war like swallows returning to their nests, pounced on the domain creature wearing khaki battle armor, and bit it hard.
Seeing this scene, Feng Qi suddenly lost the idea of continuing to eat melons.
Obviously, there will be no accidents next. The end of the cruel competition will inevitably be accompanied by the demise of one of the tribes.
Along the hillside, he continued to detour westward, avoiding the main road of the battlefield.
At this time, Feng Qi discovered that the two fields that were merging had caused a significant change in the original terrain.
The originally barren road was full of blood-red flowers on both sides, just like the flowers on the other shore described in mythology.
These flowers swayed in the breeze, emitting luminous powder, and no smell could be detected.
But looking closely at these flowers, Feng Qi only felt that there was a mysterious force penetrating into his spiritual sea of consciousness, but this penetration was very weak and did not defeat the barrier of his spiritual sea of consciousness, and was resisted outside the spiritual sea of consciousness.
I don’t know how long I walked, and the number of flowers blooming along the way gradually increased.
It felt to him like this was a road of no return to the abyss of hell.
But he didn’t have the slightest fear in his heart.
The efforts and struggles of multiple timelines had long made his mind as hard as a rock. Even if there was really an endless sea of suffering or a sea of fire and swords ahead, he still dared to go.
The fusion of the two worlds continued and intensified, and the accelerated changes in the landforms confirmed this.
Turning his head and looking in the direction of the battlefield, Feng Qi suddenly stopped.
He found that the war did not end with one side being slaughtered as he had guessed.
At this time, the thousands of creatures wearing khaki armor raised their hands and crawled on the ground, and the ghost creatures that surrounded them did not launch a fatal attack on these remaining indigenous domain creatures.
When he was confused, he suddenly thought of an article in his memory.
When he was studying in the old school, he chose the domain major, which contained a large number of documents describing the customs and culture of domain creatures.
He had seen this posture in the study materials.
It was a posture of giving up resistance and hoping to be forgiven. Obviously, these domain natives wearing khaki battle armor gave up resistance and wanted to negotiate with ghost creatures.
In Feng Qi's surprised eyes, these indigenous domain creatures were then equipped with chains made of pure energy, connected together, and marched northward under the leadership of a ghost creature team of more than 100 people. Seeing
this scene, Feng Qi had a guess about the future of this group of indigenous domain creatures.
If nothing unexpected happens, this group of domain creatures will become slaves raised by ghost creatures.
Just like the slave forces that the Mist Clan once kept in captivity, they worked for the Mist Clan and solved some tedious affairs.
For example, mining some special ores.
In fact, he asked the Lord of the Mist a question, why did the work of mining ore not use some special tools, such as the technological engineering used by humans, relying on assembly line excavation can obviously mine ore more efficiently, and can also reduce the casualties in underground mines.
Compared with keeping slaves in captivity, this is obviously more efficient.
The Lord of the Mist gave him a very reasonable explanation for this question.
In fact, many races have engineering equipment, but mining still uses captive slaves, mainly because there are several unsolvable problems.
The first is the radiation problem of underground mines.
Special underground mining areas have strong radiation. If you stay in such an environment for a long time, the body will be easily damaged by the radiation of various ores. This is one of the reasons why they do not send people to the mining area and choose to use coolies.
Secondly, the Mist Clan also thought about using the engineering technology obtained from the outside during plunder to accelerate the development of underground mines.
But this method still cannot solve the problem of high radiation intensity in the mine.
For example, the Mist Tribe once tried to control an engineering puppet suitable for mining ore on the surface to enter the underground mine, but the puppet had no independent consciousness after all and had to rely on external control. It went more than a hundred meters underground, far from reaching the mining area, and the engineering puppet was interfered with by a large amount of chaotic radiation and could no longer connect with the outside world.
The Mist Tribe has tried other engineering technology products.
In summary, these technology products are simply not comparable to coolies.
They don't value the lives of those coolies at all, and it doesn't matter if they die at the bottom of the mine, which will not affect the development of their power at all.
Compared with various unconventional methods, in a mine filled with various radiation interferences, coolies are the most efficient and practical mining tools.
Keep coolies in captivity, and their offspring will also be coolies in the future, which is inexhaustible.
At this time, seeing the indigenous forces of the domain being taken away, Feng Qi suddenly had an idea in his mind.
Can humans also keep some weak domain forces in captivity?
Human civilization fails in the utilization and transformation of resources, and is also inefficient in the exploitation of resources, and even directly abandons the exploitation of some resources.
This is fully reflected in various front-line supply areas.
For example, the Star City West Supply Area established in the previous timeline, every time a domain field is captured and the space crystal of this domain field is broken, this domain field will be integrated into the human world and become a part of the human world, including the mining area and spiritual plant area in this domain field. The
spiritual plant area is okay, and humans will continue to plant spiritual plants for use, and for this reason, the major of spiritual plant science was born.
In terms of the development of mining areas, only those mining areas that exist on the surface will be developed, and the deep mining areas will be ignored.
Because the radiation in the deep underground mining area is serious and the signal cannot be transmitted, ordinary humans with weak constitutions will die in it within a short time, and this time may even be less than 24 hours.
Letting ordinary people to mine the mining area is undoubtedly exchanging their lives for resources, and they can't get much resources in return.
And human warriors with slightly better physical fitness are the most scarce combat power of human civilization. Their role is to open up and resist the field. It is impossible to send them to mine underground.
If you do this, it is undoubtedly putting the cart before the horse.
Under the restriction of various factors, those underground mining areas that are very easy to produce rare and special spiritual ores have become decorations. Humans can't use them at all and can only ignore them.
At this time, seeing the ghost life enslaving the indigenous field creatures wearing khaki battle armor, Feng Qi suddenly thought of the idea of letting human civilization also keep field coolies.
In this way, the cultivation of spiritual plants and the mining of rare underground resources can be completed by these slave forces in the future.
This idea may be cruel, but from the perspective of all mankind, it will be a correct choice.
He has long passed the age of sentimentality. He
habitually thinks about general issues from the perspective of all mankind.
He can be infinitely tolerant of his own kind, but he cannot feel a trace of sympathy for the lives of other races.
Allowing humans to have foreign coolies seems to be a development direction that can be referenced in the future.
At this time, the old voice of Demon Knife sounded in his mind:
"After reading your memories, I found that you are really an interesting guy. The kindness in your heart is only for the human race. You can risk your life for it, even at the cost of your own life. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are a saint, but you have no mercy and compassion for foreigners, and you kill decisively. It's not an exaggeration to say that you are a demon of foreigners... But I must admit that it's not true."
"Brother Knife, do you also think this method is feasible?"
"Of course it is feasible, otherwise why would those powerful tribes keep coolies in captivity? This can save a lot of space and time. You will find that the growth systems of those powerful tribes are very complete. The new generation takes cultivation and growth as their responsibility, and the rest of the tribe members take expanding territory and obtaining more resources as their responsibility. As for those miscellaneous tasks, they are completely left to the coolies to complete. The new generation and even the older generation of our own cannot waste time on tedious affairs."
Demon Knife said here, and after a long silence, he continued:
"In fact, the most obvious difference between strong and weak races is that weak races generally choose to exploit the lower-class people in order to obtain resources and benefits. Even if the regime within the weak race changes, the final choice is still to exploit the lower-class people and use their dedication and burning to exchange for resources. After all, the development of the race must require a group of lower-class contributors to complete the lower-class work."
"But strong races will not have this kind of trouble. The bottom of strong races is made up of countless sacrifices and dedications of weak races. There are no lower-class people in strong races. The coolies required for the operation of the entire race are replaced by other races. The tasks that the members of strong races need to undertake are only to develop the skill tree of the race, improve and strengthen the growth system of the race, and even expand and plunder externally. This will save the strong race a lot of time and space."
Feng Qi had also heard the Lord of Mist say the same thing about the magic knife.
Their views are undoubtedly the same.
Strong races and weak races, strong races exploit weak races, and weak races exploit the lower-class people in the race.
In comparison, the current development of the human race is in the middle.
The development of the human race, like many weak races, requires the lower-class people to dedicate themselves and struggle in the lower-level positions in all walks of life. The resources obtained in exchange are concentrated in the elite class, and the elite class dedicates their lives to promote the progress of the race.
For example, the research institute with a very high sudden death rate, or the cruel front line.
This is a positive development cycle.
At the same time, the children of the lower-class people will have almost the same starting point as the offspring of the elite class. They can be promoted to the elite class through hard work and talent, but the price to be paid is also very high.
The meaning behind the elite class here is different from the elite class before the disaster.
The elite class before the disaster represented more vested interest groups. They could enjoy the most resources and make the least effort, and gradually became a class that exploited the lower-class people.
But the elite class of this era represents a kind of responsibility and burden. When you reach this height, you must dedicate your life to the human race. In exchange, you will not enjoy and comfort, but a more arduous future struggle.
For example, Wei Wei, Tianshu, Lao Wang, etc.
They are all representatives of the human elite class, with the most resources tilted, but the heavy responsibility they bear has nothing to do with enjoyment.
This positive cycle is very suitable for the development of human civilization at this stage, but there are also many disadvantages.
Compared with the strong races, the human race cannot devote all of humanity to the construction of the cultivation system, technological growth, and so on. There will still be a large number of low-level positions that require manpower.
Less than 0.01% of the population truly promotes the development of human civilization.
If the supply of resources is met, and humans want to continue to climb upward, they can undoubtedly choose to release the work of the lower-level people and hand over this part of the work to other races.
At that time, all of humanity will become the promoters of human civilization.
Feng Qi thought carefully, this is the future that a strong race should have.
Exploiting one's own race in exchange for growth is not a strong race at all. The real strong race is always exploiting other races in exchange for high welfare for the tribe members, as well as various resources to assist growth, knowledge education, and so on.
A strong race has no concept of the lower class.
Thinking of this, a seed sprouted in Feng Qi's heart. He felt that he seemed to have found a turning point that the human race must go through on the road of future development.
But he didn't think too much about this problem.
Before that, the acquisition of resources was the first problem that the human race had to solve.
This is just a turning point on the road to a strong race, but the human race obviously has not reached this turning point yet. The lack of resources is the biggest problem now.
Even if the whole race is a genius, the human race cannot provide enough resources to support so many talents.
But what is certain is that when the human race grows to a certain stage and the transformation of resources reaches a bottleneck, more manpower will be needed to participate in the positions of opening up roads, in exchange for the improvement of resource utilization efficiency, that is, further improvement in system construction.
At that time, it will be necessary to establish cooperation with a large number of foreign races, and even slave relations.
Thinking about his thoughts, Feng Qi kept moving forward.
At this time, the fusion of the two domains continued.
The domains where the ghost-like life forms are located continue to appear in this domain, and the road ahead is constantly blooming with bright flowers, as if blooming for his arrival.
At this moment, the voice of the Demon Knife suddenly sounded in his mind:
"Boy, to fight against Jian Ji is to fight against the entire Sword Clan. Do you have an idea to build a power of your own and attract those potential guys to serve you? When you fight Jian Ji, those guys who are loyal to you can help you resist the harassment of the Sword Clan warriors."
"Huh? Build a power?"
Thank you for the 5,000 starting coins from Master Huh Huh.
Thank you for the 4,500 starting coins from Tanzhuang Chuji.
I have completely straightened out this line in the past few days, and solved a logical problem. The explosive update is still brewing...
